Is Pacquaio becoming more and more irrelevant? Anyone else notice this?
I remember after his Win over Cotto the whole world was buzzing and it was Pacquaio this, Pacquaio. However his last 2 fights were ehh and one in which 80% of the ppl think HE LOST. I just feel like he is getting more and more irrelevant to boxing. Let's see how he does to Bradley, I think eventually he will have to take a beating from Maywaether for a pay day and then retire.

I think it definitely has. I think the major reason is the lack of excitement in his last 2 fights. I think him getting older and becoming a member of congress has changed his temperament. He no longer fights like a whirlwind with reckless abandon, he's much more conscious of not getting hit.

Seems like it. He took a huge hit when he struggled with Margarito, got knocked down by Mosley and then went on to lose to Margarito. His fanbase doesn't really follow boxing, they only follow him and they were attracted to his explosive knockouts. When a fighter starts to decline, the real fans stay but the bandwagon fans start to leave. This is what we are experiencing with Pacquiao's fans.
